Please see image, I am selecting the curtain walls in my plan (both ways) but then it selects the level below also.....

 

How can I mitigate this 

 

Thanks

Aidan

Isn't that the nature of curtain walls?

hmm I dont understand how it is the nature.... why does it only select the level below though? when I make a selection on the same level in elevation view it will allow me to only  pick that level...

I have checked where the level is and I think that is what was the problem... so I adjusted my height ofset from the base and it seems to work

Show the height properties of a curtain wall in the level below.

So you are selecting panels and mullions, not curtain walls.  If any of those components are sticking up to the working level then they are selectable.  Look at the elevation.
